Thank you. I would also like to thank Jim Rader, who sent a link to the Hubschmied paper via e-mail. I got an Error 404 when I attempted to reply with e-mail.

DGKilday: "Your own etymology of _glo:ria_ does not involve Sievers. My problem is that I never heard of being "green with glory", so I find the route Gaulish *klovesja: (vel sim.) > Ligurian > Old Latin more plausible, as with _gladius_. However, in order to investigate this theory that initial Gaulish tenues became mediae when borrowed into Ligurian (which I now attribute to differences in initial consonant strength, NOT aspiration), I need to get a copy of J.U. Hubschmied's long paper on Late Gaulish in Vox Romanica vol. 3 from the university library. Once I get this paper, it may turn out that counter-examples kill my theory."
